On January 1, 1856, the government
of Mexico appropriated $500, 900 for
the construction of monument in the
City Of Mexico to commemorate the
war in which Mexico became an indie
pendent nation. The monument was
required to be constructed of Mexican
marbles and bronzes, and was to in
clude statues of Michael Hidalgo and
other prominent Mexican leaders, bas-
reliefs, allegorical figures, ETC., in CON
nection with fountains. The architects
of ali nations were invited to compete,
and the construction of the monument
was to be intrusted to the author of the
preferred design upon the usual con-
ditions. The names of the competing
artists were to remain secret until after
the award, and then only the successful
competitor was to be made known. A
jury Of five experts, eminent architects
aud engineers, appointed by the AIexi-
can government, on January y, 1887,
reported in favor of a design, which
was adopted by the Mexican govern
ment, and which was made by CIuss &
Schulze, of Washington city, the archi-
tects of the National Museum, Medical
Museum, remodelng Of the Patent
Omce, and other public and private
buildings in Washington and elsewhere.
The successful competitors have gone
to Mexico to sign the necessary con-
tracts for the construction Of the mon
ument under their direction.

A GEORGIA Justice before whom was
recently brought suit for possession OF
a negro baby tried to initiate Solomon,
and proposed to divide the child be-
tween the claimants. To his astonish-
ment both parties yelled out: "Boss,
don't kill him You may have him !"
There is a time, apparently, when judi
cial decisions lose all the dignifed
effect of "precedents" and take on the
weak ignominy Of "ehestnuts," and this
is what happened to Solomou's judg-
ments.

velvet. 1t is particularly beautiful in light
